Tablas Creek Rose "DIANTHUS" Estate Paso Robles 750mL
| Vintage: | 2023 |
|---|---|
| Description: | The Tablas Creek Vineyard Dianthus 2022 is a blend of four estate-grown varieties propagated from budwood cuttings from the Chateau de Beaucastel estate. The blend incorporates the Rose traditions of the southern Rhone, taking its Mourvedre foundation from the solid, dry Roses of Bandol and incorporating the structure of skin contact from the rich, juicy Grenache-based Tavel. Dianthus refers to a genus of flowering plants known for their deep pink blossoms and known colloquially to gardeners as "pinks". All the grapes for this wine come from Tablas Creek's biodynamically farmed vineyard. A blend of 51% Mourvedre, 38% Grenache, 8% Counoise, and 3% Cinsaut, this wine has a lovely deep peach color. On the nose, a powerful combination of blood orange and juniper, spiced plum and smoky minerality. The mouth is rich with raspberry and rhubarb fruit, creamy texture, and a vibrant line of acidity that leaves a lingering impression of plum skin, rose petals, and briny sea spray. A ros to convert people who don't think pink wines can be serious. Drink before the end of 2025. Antonio Galloni's Vinous Media 92 Points - "More savory than sweet, the 2023 Ros Dianthus is earthy in the best possible way. Flowery underbrush and garrigue give way to crushed nectarines. It unfolds across the palate with a blend of sour melon and candied lime, creating contrast. Salty and reverberating with tension, it impresses the refreshed palate with lasting, inner florals." |
